Talking Heads - Road To Nowhere Lyrics

My 7 year old son doesn't know it yet...but he and I are watching Little Monsters as soon as I get off duty.

Somebody should play this on Trump rallies instead of Rollling Stones

I hope we're on that ride to paradise, or more likely nowhere 😩

Who else is here from watching Sex Education?

I also recognize this song from Little Monsters. 😍

Absolutely brilliant song

Talking heads low key had 'i am empty inside' syndrome before it was cool

Unas Annus.

Brexit brought me here.

“There was only 1 complete loop finished, the M25”.

Upbeat & happy tune but pretty downbeat lyrics✌️. We're all on a road to nowhere really.

New national anthem of the uk as of 23:00 tonight

The older I get, the more I realize how much of a Genius this man was..

From 1:01 to 1:20 ... That s life .

talkingheadsyoutubecomments should start being even weirder, if anything

I'm gonna have this on loop when I watch the next The Town Of Nowhere stream.


I wonder if there will ever be a movie based on David Bryne where Jim Parsons plays him.

Song about live

Hugely underrated songwriters

Love the song and video , on parr with Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer and New Order’s True Faith 👍

I miss Juan😢

Forgot how much I like this song.

David, you are a genius, I hope know it ...

Hey this one deserves more views. Try it and see. https://youtu.be/m8aleSE18TE

i love this music it makes me happy

2:20 the genuine autism look! :)

This road has come to an end by now…… at least in many European cities which aren’t Europan anymore……

WTF does this have 3million views?. I was born in the late 90's and I still listen to this song almost Everytime. Good radiance

🎶💜🎶

You gotta get somewhere. Don't take the road to nowhere

This is always in the back music off a movie

This video makes more sense to me, now that I’m an adult.

Has this track been used in a movie yet

2020 and I’m still on the road to nowhere.

Little monsters anyone??

Still there...

That community hall reminds me of the church from Kill Bill.

I wonder if the famous tumblr blog talkingheadsyoutubecomments will notice me

Skip to 30 seconds

This doesn't need a comment, but I'm going to give it one anyway....


"Fucking genius"

Anyone else think they see a hidden meaning behind some of the things the actors do or is that just me making up things in my head?

Fucking brilliant song

Its alway fun for me to rediscover a song I love.
I was reading 172 hours on the moon and a character kept mentioning talking heads.
Looked them up and boom found this song. I remember hearing this at the end of "little monsters" but never bothered to look it up till now.
Yay.

I kinda hate this lmao

Our lives agh

TALKING HEADS 2020!!!

Unico !

Lucha Libre Brought me here.

1 of my fav bands from my childhood. Now 1 of my fav bands as an adult. If only more music could be this good. ❤

Great videos...

Great songs...Thank David Byrne from Portugal.

Fred savage and howie Mandela. ‘Little Monsters’, my favorite movie 30 years ago! Well, that and drop dead Fred

This song on blast, a car ride, windows down and LSD.
It will rock your fuckkng world. Its beautiful.

Love this song

He just performed this on the Tonight Show... still cranking it out David Byrne!

Little Monsters

Pay YouTube Nine Inch Nails Pretty Hate Machine

Mam 50, czwórkę dzieci i tytuł pasuje.

RIP Brother Roy 1963-2020

Jimmy Fallon Anyone ?

2020 here

2020 here 3rd day. still remember the movie with this soundtrack from Little Monsters

I seldom see movies, but it's interesting to see people getting exposed to great music through them.  Don't directors hire composers anymore?  I still have my vinyl copy of this LP and remember seeing these folks during their famous Stop Making Sense tour.  Check out the concert DVD made of that tour.  It's in the top 5 of all concert films ever made.  It's a must see/hear.

On the road to extinction.

Baby it’s alright

Watching this it's nice to think that Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz's relationship has endured to this day.

somebody says these are the signes of a time but is really a road to nowere. Talking Heads come back

I heard this song in a store with my friend the last day I ever saw her.
RIP Beth 👼 Wish you were here.

Honest shit.

Happy new year everyone !

Made me cry

magnificent song.

2020 on a road to nowhere!!!!1

Who is David Byrn? Why he's the Forest Gump of Rock-n-Roll.

Just...perfect.

Best band ever

brilliant.

I forgot how weird and brilliant this was. Always was one of my favorite TH tunes.

What a visionary that is still relevant.

Damn the voice sounds like Josh homme

Who else saw the homage to Un Chien Andalou?

What's with the box, with David Byrne running?

This should be in the soundtrack of the stand.

It’s from Little Monsters. Loved it as a kid.

La seule chanson qui dit la vérité

No road to nowhere still you hear such kind of Art.

Well we know where we're going
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowing
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

Yeah

We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride
I'm feeling okay this morning
And you know
We're on the road to paradise
Here we go, here we go

We're on a ride to nowhere
Come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride
Maybe you wonder where you are
I don't care
Here is where time is on our side
Take you there, take you there

We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere

There's a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
And it's alright, baby, it's all right
And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day and it's all right
Baby, it's all right
Would you like to come along
You can help me sing the song
And it's all right, baby, it's all right
They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you
And it's all right, baby, it's all right

There's a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
And it's alright, baby, it's all right
And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day and it's all right
Baby, it's all right, yeah
Would you like to come along
You can help me sing the song
And it's all right, baby, it's all right
They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you and it's all right
Baby, it's all right

We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

To be in David Byrne's head must be one wild ride.....never boring and always enlightening to say the very least.....the lyrics and music fit together perfectly.....

How do you get rid of those goddamn link overlays? They ruin the end of this video.

David Byrne, "sings" something OBVIOUS 30 years earlier!

Right on BUSTER, yes he sure does, you said it 👍

Everyone gangsta till’ you go to the Road To Nowhere

I miss you. I never wanted to split up, and I'll always be sad that we had to. But I'll also always be happy for our time together.

Living with yourself finale tho

My battle anthem when I was young and thought I was Teflon coated. God bless the Talking Heads!!!

the male character's arm movement looks really like the Joy Division frontman's, in She's Lost Control. Maybe an interesting coincidence.

This Song for me is cherfullness

David you are funny too

I am approaching the end of my ride to nowhere. The journey will end soon. Then ill know if we go nowhere or continue another journey or if life really is a ride to nowhere.

These guys always looked like they were having fun :) Also the picture in picture with the running white figures, always reminded me of the Tommy Boy record label.

Damn those vaporwave aesthetics way before vaporwave

The "Hi Vista Community Hall" you see here is a real building somewhere in Lancaster, California. It was also featured in the 1981 film "True Confessions" (with Robert De Niro and Robert Duvall) and in the 2003 film "Kill Bill: Vol. 1".
